Johannesburg - Lucky Lekgwathi admits he was disappointed to see Orlando Pirates
not come away from the Soweto derby with all three points following the
1-1 draw against Kaizer Chiefs.

According to football411.comwebsite, the result left the Buccaneers trailing their bitter rivals and
PSL leaders Chiefs by three points, while also allowing Platinum Stars
to go level on points in second place.

Speaking after the encounter, Pirates captain Lekgwathi told his
club's official website: "You have to understand that we needed this
match more than anybody else.

"We were playing at home and I think we had the game under
control in some stages but unfortunately we failed to score more goals."

He added: "Overall, both teams created a lot of chances but since
we got our goal first I'm disappointed that we were unable to keep our
lead.

"The supporters will probably be okay with that (draw) because we
did not lose the game and no supporters will have more bragging rights
than the others going into Christmas, so, from that perspective I guess
they could be happy but for me, I think we could have done a little
more.

"The game is now gone and we will look forward to the next match.
It is a must win for us and we will do all we can to win that match."
